Until recently I’ve been able to print emails from Windows Live Mail to my USB-connected Brother printer. Now when I try to print an email it comes out as hieroglyphics. Printing from other programs such as Word and Adobe Reader come out OK. Apparently the problem is in Windows Live Mail but I have not been able to find it and would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks.

Patch reliability is unclear, but widespread attacks make patching prudent. Go ahead and patch, but watch out for potential problems. |
